Summary: good game
Review: Um, Felini this game isn't a RTS it's a turn based strategy, and like most TBS the games do take a long time to finish, but it's a pretty fun game. I'm in the beta right now and it is definatly worth picking up on oct 28.

Summary: So far it's great!
Review: I'm a long-time fan of Civ, including Civ III, and I'm in the beta test program for this expansion pack. While I'm not allowed to say anything specific about the game, I think it's safe for me to say that I can't wait to have a copy of the final version. Civ Conquests does everything right to make some bite-sized chunks of Civ -- now I find myself playing the scenarios all the time instead of the main game, just because I can finish them faster. If you've ever played and liked Civ III, there's absolutely no reason not to pick this up.

Summary: Civ III...continuation of the BEST gaming experience ever!
Review: Having played my first Civ game in 1991 on my very first PC, I've been a fan of the series ever since, having owned and played every single published Civilization series game and spin off ever released. While some will state that this is a rip-off to publish add-on packs for features that should have been included in the first place, that's another debate which I won't address, or knock stars off my rating for it. Having seen pieces of the beta software and what is added, I say bring it on. I'll buy it and play it. If you're a hardcore Civ gamer, you'll love it!

Summary: Extremely addictive, and it makes CIV 3 complete
Review: Although I am a long time fan of Sid Meier's games, I was somewhat disappointed with Civ 3 when it came out. However, this expansion pack more than makes up for it. If you've got Civ 3 I highly recommended that you get this, as it adds many more civilizations, scenarios, units, goverments (feudalism and fascism) and building options, and other things that probably should have been in the game in the first place. The only negative things about this are that it doesn't allow palace building in the scenarios, and the "events" from civ 2 that made the scenarios so exciting are absent. Also, the game does slow down on bigger maps, Concerning the January 10, 2004 review, I hardly think CIV 3 compares to GTA Vice City in terms of violence and depravity . I'd much rather have kids playing this and learning about history, world cultures, and science than running around shooting people and stealing cars. (Not that I have anything against GTA Vice City; GTA & CIV are different games for different audiences, and it's not fair to compare them) The Meso-American cultures practiced HUMAN SACRIFICE. If you don't like it, don't practice it. If you wanted, you could use democracy to usher in a new era of global peace and freedom, or you could be a fascist dictator and destroy your enemies with nuclear weapons. How you play Civ is up to you, and that's part of what makes the game so much fun.

Summary: Wow!
Review: How many times have you waited for an expansion pack to come out to improve the few things that you find wrong with a game that you really enjoy, only to be disappointed? Well this time, things are different. I cannot say enough good things about the original Civ 3, and the Conquests expansion pack has fixed the minor problems, and added a lot of new gameplay excitement.
If you've never played Civ 3, buy the original and the Conquests expansion. If you've played the Civ 3 game, buy the Conquests expansion today!

Summary: Awesome, Addictive & FUN!
Review: All additions and changes to CivIII are useless until they do something about the 2 major shortcomings of the entire Civ series: the stupid movement system (moving each unit individually even when a whole stack wants to go to the same place); and the stupid combat system (where each unit attacks and defends seperately no matter how many are involved in the same battle). Leaders, as defined so far, dont really help much. As it is, I almost never finish a game because it bogs down into endless turns of moving and attacking one unit at a time. Boring!
Another major problem is that there are never enough resources, even at the easiest level of play; forcing you into wars, even if you would like to be peaceful. Their availability should be adjustable, the same way the size of continents and other items are.
A minor irritation is that I can't choose the color of my units.

Summary: The conquests are great fun
Review:
I think the conquests added to the game make it much better than the original. These are more than just extra scenarios. They have very different victory conditions and totally renamed and reworked civs to comply with the conquest conditions. Very fun. A great addition in my book. Especially if you don't have time to play out an entire 6000 year game.

Summary: Buggy like you wouldn't believe
Review: This game was released way to soon. It is buggy and missing many graphics files. Even the very large patch cannot fix it. I wouldn't recommend this. It was a lot of fun but invariably something would go wrong. For example in one game It would add 500 gold per turn to my tally regardless of howmuch my civ was actually spending. Sounds good, well in another game, I was in the negative no matter how much I stripped down the expenses. This appeared to be related to the corruption calculations, but I'm not a programmer so don't take my word for it. The game is just unpredictable. In another very frustrating episode, I could not load a certain saved game, for no apparent reason.
Stay away. Save your money. Civ 4 is coming and this is not worth the waste of time.
